I recently got the Anker PowerConf C300 webcam and it is quite pixelated for supposedly being 1080p with HDR 30 FPS, mainly i'm looking to see if anyone has any experience with this or knows how to improve it's quality, or do you have any recommendations for a replacement?

Do you have adequate light? Any camera will get noisy and look bad without enough light.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I just checked the price on Amazon and it's going for $127. That's a pretty penny.

 

The Elgato Facecam is not much more expensive and I really like it. It uses a Sony sensor, IIRC. That's my recco.

This is 100% accurate.

To be clear, is it pixelated or is it grainy?

Grain can cause pixelation on webcams due to bitrate.
